Dawn until dusk, the city is alive with sounds, from the TING-ALING- A-LING of an alarm clock in the morning to the BEEEEEP! BEEEEP! of traffic in the afternoon to the quiet SHHHHHHHHHHHHHH of evening. Noted illustrator Beppe Giacobbe's bright palette and pleasing cityscapes bring the excitement of the city to life in a story that begs to be read aloud again and again.

Praise for this book

The irresistible cityscapes and playful text will have young urbanites and those anticipating big city sojourns clamoring for repeat visits" --Booklist
"In spare, elegant illustrations, the city is seen on many levels - underground, street and elevated - with the boy moving through a forest no less mysterious than the jungle room of Maurice Sendak." --New York Times Book Review

"A vivid sliver of city life." --Kirkus
